What is a “Cool Roof”?
A “cool roof” is a roof
that reflects and emits
heat from the sun back
into the atmosphere
instead of absorbing it
into the building below.
The amount of “coolness” is measured by
both Total Solar
Reflectance (TSR) and
thermal emittance.

What is a “Cool Roof”?
Reflectivity and Emissivity
There are two considerations when looking at the
energy efficiency of a
surface. They include
reflectivity and emissivity.
Reflectivity is a measure of
how well a material rejects
solar energy. Emissivity
refers to the degree that the
material holds that energy.

What is an “IR Heat-Reflective
Roof Coating”?
Infrared (IR) HeatReflective Roof Coatings
are revolutionary
coatings formulated with
a special heat-reflective
finish that reflects
infrared heat back into
the atmosphere and can
greatly increase the TSR
values of new or existing
metal and tile roofing
structures in all colors.

Origin of IR Heat- Reflective
Coatings
IR Heat-Reflective
coatings originated
within the U.S. Military.
And more recently
utilized in their
STEALTH program
where they are used to
diffuse heat to
eliminate radar
detection.

Development of IR HeatReflective Coatings
IR Heat-Reflective Coatings are…
u  Designed to change the infrared or invisible
portion of the light spectrum, helping to reflect
heat. Therefore reducing heat absorption, even
in dark colors.
u  Designed to diffuse heat evenly across the
roofing surface.
u  Works without the use of ceramic
spheres or
other non-proven technologies.

The Light Spectrum
Much of the light spectrum
consists of visible light –
the light we can actually
see. But a large portion of
it is invisible to the eye –
the near infrared light. IR
heat reflective coatings
reduce the effect of this
largest portion of the light
spectrum. By making this
portion of the light
spectrum highly reflective,
darker colors can perform
much like lighter colors.

Coatings
Dark Colors vs. Light Colors
Anyone who has ever owned a dark colored car in the
summertime knows that dark colors absorb more heat
from the sun than light colors. That’s because a color like
black reflects less of the sun’s energy than the color
white. In fact, black only reflects about 5% of the sun’s
energy. IR heat reflective coatings allow even dark colors
to act like light colors,
reflecting much of the
sun s radiant
energy… an important
advantage to
designers, builders
and building owners
concerned about rising
energy costs and
global warming.

Coatings
Materials and Heat Absorption
On a hot day, roof surfaces can absorb as much as 90% of the
radiant energy. Even white roofs can absorb significant solar
radiation. The roof’s absorption of radiant energy makes the
inside of the structure hotter and creates greater demand on
HVAC systems, thus contributing to carbon emissions.
Tests show that advanced infrared heat reflective coatings are
on average 100% more reflective than ordinary paint, even in
darker colors. When less heat enters a structure, less energy is
required to cool its interior.

What is a “PVDF”
Fluoropolymer Roof Coating?
Water-based PVDF Fluoropolymer Roof Coatings
incorporate Polyvinylidene
Flouride (PVDF) resin
technology which provides
several increased benefits
as compared to typical
acrylic roof coatings. PVDF
coatings have a much
harder finish, providing
many benefits as compared
to typical acrylic/
elastomeric roof coatings.

What They Can Do
Compared to typical acrylic and/or elastomeric roof
coatings and non-coated roofing surfaces, IR HeatReflective PVDF Roof Coatings can…
Greatly reduce the amount of heat that is absorbed
and retained by a building’s exterior roof surfaces.
u  Lower exterior roof temperatures by over 50
degrees when compared to non-reflective coatings,
paints, and uncoated surfaces in many colors.
u  Provide a
passive cooling technique that yields
peak cooling load reductions and carbon
reductions. Reduce the urban heat island effect,
which contributes to urban smog and causes
increased demands on power plants.

Total Solar Reflectance (TSR)
Definition:
The ratio of total solar
radiation which is reflected
outward by the surface to the
amount of total solar radiation
falling on the surface.
Traditional paint colors provide
limited heat reflective
properties. IR heat reflective
coatings enable high
reflectance, in ALL colors, even
white and dark. In fact, IR heat
reflective PVDF coatings are on
average 100% more reflective
than traditional paints and
coatings in the same color.
Additionally, they resist dirt
pick-up, which can accumulate
and reduce TSR over time.

Solar Reflective Index (SRI)
Definition:
The Solar Reflective Index (SRI) incorporates both the
Total Solar Reflectance (SRI) and thermal emittance in to
one value. SRI is used by many codes, standard, and
programs that specify cool roofing requirements. A high
SRI value is synonymous with a cool roof.
Calculating SRI:
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory maintains a userfriendly SRI calculator on their website. Simply input the
Total Solar Reflectance and thermal emittance values and
the calculator will determine the SRI. This tool is located at
www.coolcolors.lbl.gov .

Total Solar Absorption
Definition:
The ratio of the amount of
total solar radiation
absorbed by the surface to
the amount of total solar
energy falling on the
surface. Solar absorption is
that portion of total solar
radiation neither
transmitted nor reflected.
Because more solar radiation is reflected by IR heat reflective
PVDF coatings, the emittance value is higher. When less energy is
absorbed, the amount of heat entering the interior of a structure is
reduced. This reduction in heat means a reduction in the use of
HVAC systems to cool the interior, reducing peak cooling loads.

Reduced Peak Cooling Load
Depending on the climate zone, substrate & other
conditions in which a building is located, heat
reflective coatings can make a significant
contribution to reduce peak cooling load & lower
cooling costs. Heat reflective coatings can:
u  Lower roof surface temperatures by over 50
degrees when compared to traditional paints
and uncoated roofing surfaces in many colors.
u  Reduce energy costs related to peak cooling
load*.
u  Create less heat buildup around the building
(heat island effect) that can raise interior
temperatures.
*Percentage of peak cooling load reductions are based on models generated from the “Roof Savings Calculator” Beta
Release v 0.92 Oak Ridge and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories when compared to a non-cool roof . Cooling
costs savings, percentage of peak cooling load and surface temperature reductions will vary based on color chosen,
geographical location, climate condition, and substrate type. In some climates, there may be a heating penalty. For

Durability
Most building materials, including roof surfaces
and substrates, are prone to expansion and
contraction due to natural heating and cooling.
Excessive heat absorption can exacerbate this
natural expansion and contraction, placing
stress on the substrate and causing building
fatigue.
Because of the high reflectance properties of
these coatings, the amount of heat absorbed by
the substrate is greatly reduced. The result:

Less expansion and contraction.

Environmental Benefits
u  Energy
Savings: Heat reflective coatings reduce the amount
of heat entering the interior space of a building, which means
less energy is required for cooling.
u  Conservation of Resources: No impact on landfill realized.
u  Air Quality: The highly reflective coating systems reduce the
urban heat island effect. The result is improved air quality
and lower levels of urban smog – as well as decreased
demand on electrical utilities’ power plants, most of which
burn fossil fuels to generate electricity.
u  Extremely low VOC – formulated with less than 50g/L.

evaluating and labeling the solar
reflectance and thermal emittance
(radiative properties) of roofing
products and to disseminate the
information to all interested parties.
The CRRC’s Rated Products
Program provides a directory of
various roofing surface products
that have been rated under a strict

owners and operators with a framework for identifying and
implementing practical and measurable green building
design, construction, operations, and maintenance
solutions. LEED projects are rated on a point system and
can obtain silver, gold, or platinum level certifications. The
LEED program includes a credit under the Sustainable Sites
category for cool roofs based on their ability to reduce the
urban heat island effect. A cool roof must have a minimum
SRI of 78 for low sloped roofs and 29 for steep sloped roofs
in order to be eligible for credit.
